EDITORS COMMENTS
is a captivating oil on canvas masterpiece by Dutch artist Hendrick Ter Brugghen. This stunning print captures the essence of the original artwork, measuring 153x195 cm and currently housed in the Musee des Beaux-Arts Andre Malraux in Le Havre, France. The painting depicts a pivotal moment from biblical history - the calling of St. Matthew by Jesus Christ himself. The scene is filled with rich symbolism and intricate details that showcase Ter Brugghen's mastery as an artist. In this composition, we see St. Matthew seated at a table covered with gold and silver coins, scales representing justice, and tax payers counting their money. The custom house setting emphasizes his role as a tax collector before he was called to become one of Jesus' disciples. Ter Brugghen skillfully captures the transformative moment when Jesus points towards Matthew, who appears startled yet intrigued by this divine encounter. The play of light and shadow adds depth to the figures' expressions and enhances the dramatic atmosphere. This print not only showcases Ter Brugghen's artistic brilliance but also invites viewers to reflect upon themes such as redemption, faith, and personal transformation. It serves as a reminder that even those deemed unworthy can be called upon for greater purposes. With its historical significance and visual allure, "The Calling of St. Matthew" remains an iconic piece within art history that continues to inspire audiences worldwide.
